Security Architecture
Canonical Record
The Source of TruthWe keep an internal record that is treated as the official version. The PDF and verification page are based on this record. If someone alters a copy of the PDF, the data in our system does not change and will not match.
Technical: The certificate data is stored in our database with the certificate ID as a primary key. The verification endpoint reads from this canonical record and does not trust client-side documents.
Digital Fingerprint
DigiCert TimestampWe create a digital fingerprint of each certificate and send it to a trusted time authority. This proves that a specific certificate existed in a specific state at a precise time.
Technical: SHA-256 hash submitted to DigiCert Time Stamping Authority (TSA). The signed timestamp token binds the hash to a trusted time source.
Blockchain Anchoring
Merkle RootCertificates are batched and anchored on the Bitcoin blockchain. This creates a public, independent proof of existence without revealing content.
Technical: Merkle root submitted to the Bitcoin blockchain. Per-certificate proofs show inclusion in the anchored Merkle root at a specific block height.
Common Questions
Is the certificate valid indefinitely? expand_more
The certificate does not expire. It reflects our assessment at the time of issue, based on the data available. Updates to the record are reflected instantly on the verification page.
What if I lose my PDF copy? expand_more
If you are the holder of the certificate you can re-download it from your Very Véritable account at any time.
Can a certificate ever be changed? expand_more
In rare cases (for example, correction of a clear error), we may update a certificate record after internal review. Any change is applied to the canonical record and will appear on the verification page.
